Women’s Vision
Each year, March is designated
as National
Women’s History Month to
ensure that the history of
American women will be
recognized and celebrated
in schools, workplaces, and
communities throughout
the country. The stories of
women’s historic achievements
present an expanded
view of the complexity and
contradiction of living a full
and purposeful life.
The knowledge of
women’s history provides a
more expansive vision of
what a woman can do. This
perspective can encourage
girls and women to think
larger and bolder and can
give boys and men a fuller
understanding of the female
experience.
